on a dark desert highway,cool wind in my hair
warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
up ahead in the distance, i saw a shimmering light
my head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
i had to stop for the night
there she stood in the doorway
i heard the mission bell
i was thinking to myself
"this could be heaven or this could be hell"
then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
there were voice down the corridor
i thought i heard them say...
welcome to the Hotel California
such a lovely place(such a lovely place)
such a lovely place
plenty of room at the Hotel California
any time of year (any time of year)
u can find it here
her mind is Tiffany-twisted,she got the Mercedes bends
she got a lot of pretty,pretty boys,that she calls friends
how they dance in the courtyard,sweet summer sweat
some dance to remember,some dance to forget
so i called up the Captain
"please bring me my wine"
he said,"we haven't that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine"
and still those voice are calling from far away
wake u up in the middle of the night
just to hear them say...
welcome to the Hotel California
such a lovely place(such a lovely place)
such a lovely place
they're living it up at the Hotel California
what a nice place(what a nice surprise)
bring your alibis
mirrors on the ceiling,the pink champagne on ice
and she said,"we are just prisoners here of our own device"
and i n the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast
they stab it with their steely knives
but they just can't kill the beast
last thing i remember , i was running for the door
i had to find the passage back to the place i wass before
"relax,"said the night man,"we are programmed to receive
u can check out any time u like, but u can nerver leave"
